Von Johnson joined ITC Entertainment as Vice President of Worldwide Technical Services in 1993. ITC was a British production and distribution company formed by the late Lord Lew Grade in 1954. Prior to the acquisition by PolyGram Filmed Entertainment in 1995, ITC boasted the world’s largest filmed entertainment library at well over 10,000 hours. Among this vast collection were the adventure/science fiction gems The Prisoner, Space:1999, The Saint and The Persuaders. ITC also owned Gerry Anderson’s brilliant marionette creations Thunderbirds, Supercar and Fireball XL5. The motion picture collection included Academy Award winners Sophie’s Choice and On Golden Pond.

Under Johnson's administration, the Worldwide Technical services group oversaw film-to-tape mastering, quality assurance, language dubbing, inventory control and international television distribution.
